FAQs

This starter is designed for Kohler XT series engines, including the XT149, XT173, XT650, XT675, XT775, XT800, XT-6, and XT-7 models.
This unit directly replaces Kohler OEM part numbers 14 165 01, 14 165 01-S, 14 165 07, and 14 165 07-S.
You likely need a replacement if the pull rope is frayed or broken, if the recoil spring fails to retract the rope, or if the internal plastic or steel pawls are worn down and no longer engage the engine flywheel to turn it over.
Installation is straightforward and typically takes about 10 to 15 minutes. You will generally only need a socket wrench or nut driver to remove the mounting bolts securing the old starter housing to the engine shroud. Ensure the engine is cool and the spark plug wire is disconnected before beginning.
When installing, ensure the starter pawls are properly aligned with the flywheel cup before tightening the mounting bolts. If the rope does not engage the engine, verify that the housing is seated flush against the engine shroud to prevent binding.
